The elderly have special needs and can be dependent on caregivers to make sure that these needs are addressed. The needs of the elderly include a need for:

• Emotional wellness (including the ability to give and receive love, and to understand and express feelings and emotions),

• Intellectual wellness (including the ability to develop and express creatively, and opportunities to process information effectively),

• Physical wellness (physical activity, fitness, and health),

• Social wellness (quality relationships and social networks),

• Spiritual wellness (in a manner that’s appropriate for each person), and

• Vocational and/or recreational wellness (opportunities for pursuing vocational and/or recreational pursuits that are appropriate for each person).

Insight provides consulting and training for services with the elderly. Insight is a Company Partner of the Research Society in Australia, and Insight CEO, Dr Mark Griffin, is certified as a Qualified Professional Researcher with the society.
